Command fails on remote PC because of Nuget provider prompt
Wright, John M
I have a script with this line that’s executed by Invoke-command:
if ((Get-Module -Name AudioDeviceCmdlets -ea 0) -eq $null) { Install-Module -Name AudioDeviceCmdlets -Force -Confirm:$false; Import-Module -Name AudioDeviceCmdlets -ea 0 }
It’s part of a check to see that the target has the necessaries before using the AudioDeviceCmdlets module. But it gets this prompt, and I can’t find a scripted way around it. Any ideas?
NuGet provider is required to continue
PowerShellGet requires NuGet provider version '2.8.5.201' or newer to interact with NuGet-based repositories. The NuGet provider must be available in 'C:\Program
Files\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies' or 'C:\Users\jmwright\AppData\Local\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies'. You can also install the NuGet provider by running 'Install-PackageProvider
-Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force'. Do you want PowerShellGet to install and import the NuGet provider now?
[Y] Yes [N] No [?] Help (default is "Y"):
FWIW, I tried running this command first but it didn’t help: if (! (Get-PackageProvider -name NuGet)) { Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force }

Installing and then importing the nuget package provider should work.
Do you get a different error?

Here it is:
if (! (Get-PackageProvider -name NuGet)) { Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force -Confirm:$false }
The provider 'nuget v2.8.5.208' is not installed.
nuget may be manually downloaded from https://cdn.oneget.org/providers/Microsoft.PackageManagement.NuGetProvider-2.8.5.208.dll and installed.
Would you like PackageManagement to automatically download and install 'nuget' now?

Pretty sure you need to add one more argument:
if (! (Get-PackageProvider -name NuGet)) { Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force -Confirm:$false -ForceBootStrap }
Let me know.
Wright, John M
Unfortunately, it still prompts:
if (! (Get-PackageProvider -name NuGet)) { Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force -Confirm:$false -ForceBootStrap }
The provider 'nuget v2.8.5.208' is not installed.
nuget may be manually downloaded from https://cdn.oneget.org/providers/Microsoft.PackageManagement.NuGetProvider-2.8.5.208.dll and installed.

Is the script running with admin privs?
I just spun up a VM to test, but it’ll take 15-20 minutes to apply updates.

Stupid silly inconsistency. A Get-* cmdlet is NEVER supposed to modify system state.
This does the bootstrap:
Get-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -Force -ForceBootstrap
Wright, John M
That was it! Thanks very much for your help. I would’ve been a long time figuring that one out.
